Vendée Coastline
Observe the long sandy beaches and the Atlantic waves crashing against the western shores of France.
Île de Ré and Oléron
The distinctive white bridges and salt pans of these famous islands are clearly visible from cruising altitude.
Gironde Estuary
The massive, silt-colored junction where the Garonne and Dordogne rivers meet the Atlantic Ocean.
Bordeaux Vineyards
The geometric precision of the world's most famous vineyards including Médoc and Saint-Émilion.
Les Landes Forest
